This is from a bunch of dvds from Denise Druce who has a gym club called "She & Co." The dvd has intro to both Denise & Kimmy & about the club & the 20-25 min workout. The dvd has nice graphics in the menu.
Kimmy is also a fitness instructor, no mention of any dance training or experience at all. She teaches you alone in a room.
She does not teach any common moves, I have no idea what she is doing with a supposed snake arms... her simple large hip circles are VERY wobbly & unattractive. She is a pretty woman, she looks like she could dance if taught & would do decent dancing in a club, but other then that, she has no business teaching anything dance related.
If still interested, the pace is VERY slow & easy for those out of shape or never work out...
Check out another product from them to show their lack of knowledge of bellydancing:

I finally found their site at fitessentials net which has previews of a 5 of their 19 dvds. The preview of the bellydancing one is not the one here.

First the name on the information of this dvd is not the person instructing. Second, I think if you are you are doing a dvd about belly dance - you should know something about belly dance! This instructor may be a good arobics instructor, she was positive and encouraging. However she was clueless about belly dance. I think if she would have tried some actual belly dance moves, her tecnique was so bad she would have hurt herself.

If you are looking for a belly dance workout, this is not it. The instructor is personable, and she seems like a good aerobics instructor. This is a descent aerobic workout with a few so called bd movements. However, most of the moves are not bellydance. The workout was on the beginner level, and I did like the workout. But I don't appreciate people making dvds on things they no nothing about. If Denise Druce wanted to make bellydancing dvds, she should have hired a professional bellydancer to teach.

I like it . It is not a hard core workout but if you have physical problems that make it to hard to do most workouts then this is a good one to do. Use it at least once a week for a mixture into my weekly workout.
